About Le Tilleul  [to see more photos, click any  link  in the text]

Le Tilleul is surrounded by 15 acres of its own land on three sides - a quiet country lane runs along the fourth side. The farm buildings form a U-shape around a big lime tree ("le tilleul" in French) and the old farmyard. On one side is "The Barn", which sleeps six plus a baby. Opposite is the main farmhouse, and perpendicular to the farmhouse is "La Maison de Grand-Mère", which sleeps four. Although Le Tilleul is in a very rural area, shopping is not a problem. A baker's van calls daily, and a "charcuterie" van and a butcher's van call weekly. The local "boulangerie" is about a mile away. If you follow the "yellow brick road" (actually a gravel track, but the name has stuck!) which runs along the edge of Le Tilleul's field, the boulangerie is an easy, car-free walk or cycle. And look and listen out for hares, deer, lizards, hen-harriers and hoopoes along the way! Wine, flowers and the warmest of welcomes await you – and if you'd like a meal on your arrival night, place your order when sending your final holiday payment! So just arrive, relax and leave your stress behind...
